Windows application and website server communication

Question

1.00/5 (2 votes)

See more:

In my project I have created an application in windows using C#.
In the application I want to connect to my web server (or domain) and send a request to it,
and then in my web server I want to create a page or a web application to answer the request !

For example I want to send a request like 'Name?' from my windows application,
then I should be able to get the request text in my web server (www.mydomain.com) and answer properly. (e.g. 'jack').

How should I do this !?
should I use chat server? (if so, isn't there any easiest way?)
Any other Idea?

Thanks in advanced.

Take a look at How to use HttpWebRequest and HttpWebResponse in .NET[^] for samples on how to do this.
